Hi. Again. Please stop adding/readding the bus route, transport schedules, and timetable style content to Dublin rail station articles. Wikipedia is not a repository for timetables, schedules/directories, or similar travel guide content. Wikivoyage is the Commons project for that type of content. Otherwise, if web users are looking for bus timetable or route details, they can visit the websites of the relevant travel companies or TFI journey planner or similar. Thanks.

I did not add timetables, travel guides, or similar. I merely enhanced the articles by adding / updating the connecting transport services that serve stations and relevant route numbers/destinations. As transport services are designed to link up, it is useful information and doesn't take up too much room, in fact I replaced outdated information in many cases. Can I ask why you removed my useful inputs, and to whom I can appeal this to, as it's hardly just you who dictates the end content of these pages, particularly where the content is relevant and useful. Are you even based in Dublin? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Risteardt (talk • contribs)


 * @ ... I do agree it is not just who dictates these things but it is done by consensus.  As it happens I pretty much totally concur with Guliolopez.  I will suggest a discussion at WikiProject Ireland or WikiProject Trains if necessary to clarify this.  Which would you prefer ?  Thankyou.  Djm-leighpark (talk) 16:56, 19 June 2019 (UTC)


 * Hello.
 * RE: "it is useful information and doesn't take up too much room". Per WP:NOTEVERYTHING, content is not included solely based on whether it is "true or useful". Other considerations apply.
 * RE: "it's hardly just you who dictates the end content of these pages". No. It's not. The content of pages is dictated by policy (like the several that I have linked for you), by consensus, and ultimately by the community as a whole. As has advised. (And, FYI, as of today, the community as a whole has established that bulleted lists of bus numbers and bus routes might be suited to other corners of the internet. But are not suited to this one.)
 * RE: "are you even based in Dublin?". Your question is entirely irrelevant. (Whether a person is based in Dublin or Dubai, the content and editing policies apply equally. As per WP:EX, Wikipedia does not ascribe rights based on who (or where) editors are. But on what editors do. Including, for example, limiting rights of those editors who consistently ignore policy and consensus.) That being said, I first moved to Dublin in 1984. Guliolopez (talk) 17:32, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
